Chapter 558 Emperor Qin’s Will! All Sacrifices
Da Qin, Tianlu thirty-seventh year, spring.
Strange fire fell from the sky, the night was as dark as day, the Lingzhao mountain collapsed, the imperial palace sank into the abyss, and the emperor's hand was edicted to caress it.
This night is destined to be difficult to calm down.
Even if His Majesty the Historian has only a few words, the fewer words, the greater the matter.
Even hundreds of years later, this day will not be forgotten by the world. Every time it is mentioned, it will always be said.
That night, a sword fell from the sky.
The sword pillar was so powerful that it sacrificed the lost cemetery, destroyed the cave in the hermitage, and cut off Lingzhao Mountain in half.
At that time, the world was shocked, and the world once again realized the terror of the Nine Divine Pillars.
The edge of the sword pillar is still so sharp.
It's not that he hides his sword in a sheath, but there are not many people in the world who can let him draw his sword.
Coincidentally, he had an apprentice who was the current King Yuan.
Chiling Palace once naively thought that this was a wild child that no one cared about and no one cared about. He could bully him arbitrarily without any scruples.
Finally, Jianzhu let them and the world know what it means to truly protect one's shortcomings.
For the sake of this only disciple, he even took action in the capital regardless of his status. He was domineering and had no taboos. He defeated Ye Shen and overthrew the Chiling Palace.
This battle will make everyone in the world tremble with fear.
At the same time, another piece of news spread like wildfire along with the battle, shocking all parties.
Zhou Dao, the current king of Yuan Dynasty, was actually the biological son of the previous king of Yuan Dynasty.
This news is like throwing a huge boulder into a cold pool of stagnant water, causing thousands of waves and ripples to spread, with unimaginable impact.
"Zhou Dao...Zhou Xuan...no wonder they all have the surname Zhou...two generations of Yuan Kings from the same family, what kind of horse is this? It's so outrageous!"
"Is this news true or false? Both father and son are Yuan Kings? This is too...where is the tomb of their ancestors? Is there smoke?"
"At that time, I said Zhou Dao and Zhou Xuan, these two people must be related. Look, I was right."
"To your mother! Just say what you say when you are on horseback. A toad is beating a big drum and boasting."
On this day, the most discussed topics in all areas of the world were the life experiences of Sword Pillar Li Zangfeng and Yuan Wang Zhou Dao.
…
Lingzhao Mountain, Chiling Palace.
The prosperity of the past was gone. Li Zangfeng cut off the mountain with a sword, cutting off all the veins of this spiritual mountain. The spiritual energy leaked out, and most of the palace was destroyed and damaged.
This is an extremely painful price for Chiling Palace, especially the loss of face, which is simply immeasurable.
Since the establishment of Chiling Palace, it has never suffered such a heavy setback. In the capital, someone knocked on the door and bullied the dojo.
"Li Zangfeng, I want you to pay with blood."
Ye Miaoxian was furious, the murderous intent in his eyes was solid, and the terrifying pressure turned the ruins under his feet into dust.
All the elders were trembling with fear, but their faces were filled with grief and anger.
The former glory and pride disappeared under Li Zangfeng's sword.
Even their greatest support, the so-called undefeated Ye Shen, disappeared between heaven and earth.
For Chiling Palace, this is the most unbearable thing, as if the sky is falling and the earth is falling, and the future is unclear.
"Miaoxian, there is no need to be angry. One day, Li Zangfeng will follow in Zhou Xuan's footsteps."
At this moment, a cold voice came from the void.
The ruins in front of me suddenly shattered, and the fallen rocks reunited and gradually came together, returning to their original appearance.
In the blink of an eye, Lingzhao Mountain seemed to be renewed by a pair of invisible hands, and even the broken palace was restored to its original state, as if time was flowing backwards.
"See Sect Leader Chu."
Everyone turned around and bowed to the void.
Suddenly, the void door opened wide, and a man in a golden robe walked out. He was as majestic as a god. The sun, moon, mountains and rivers were embroidered on his golden robe, and his domineering aura filled the world.
Next to him, Elder Tianxing could not help but lower his head when he saw the visitor, showing humility and respect.
Chu Kuangtian, this is the supreme powerhouse who can rival Ye Shen.
However, very few people in the world today are aware of its existence.
Back then, he was just a follower around Zhou Xuan. At that time, no one could see his talent and ambition.
When everyone was waiting for their reaction, he had ascended to the sky and transformed into a dragon, with his fangs exposed, and his strength was among the best in the world.
Now, he has become the head of Zhou Tianxuan Sect and inherited everything Zhou Xuan left behind.
"Chu Kuangtian, you're late." Ye Miaoxian looked cold and didn't have much enthusiasm for this man.
"Miaoxian, don't be angry." Chu Kuangtian whispered, with a soft look in his eyes.
Back then, for Ye Miaoxian, he could even betray Zhou Xuan and participate in the fatal situation.
Even after that, Ye Miaoxian always treated him aloofly, but Chu Kuangtian didn't care. He was very satisfied to be able to help Ye Miaoxian.
"Li Zangfeng, he defeated his brother." Ye Miaoxian gritted his teeth and said with great hatred.
"Ye Shen Bubai, how can the third life be so easy to crack?" Chu Kuangtian whispered.
His realm is far above Ye Miaoxian, so he naturally knows the secrets.
"You mean..."
"The past has long since become empty, the present is fleeting, and only the future can achieve immeasurable things..."
The sound of Chu Kuang's licking became mysterious and unpredictable.
"This is Ye Shen's fate and his opportunity. If he can take that step, he may be able to penetrate the last layer..."
Speaking of this, Chu Kuangli couldn't help but sigh.
This kind of opportunity is extremely dangerous, and it cannot be accessed by a brave man except by great luck. Death and destruction are just around the corner.
"The sword pillar is really powerful, it can actually break Ye Shen's two reincarnations."
A trace of fear flashed in Chu Kuangli's eyes.
"But I also got a glimpse of his background. This person's origins are by no means simple."
"Of course it's not simple. He and Zhou Xuan are suspected to be from the same place."
Through this battle, Ye Miaoxian also captured some clues.
"Zhou Xuan..."
At the mention of this name, Chu Kuangtian's expression became a little unnatural.
Back then, he was just a follower around Zhou Xuan.
The brilliance of the position of King Yuan was overwhelming, covering up all his talents.
That man has been standing on the top of the mountain, enjoying the glory, but he can only look up at the bottom of the mountain.
That kind of frustration tortured him.
If that's all it is, then that's it.
However, Zhou Xuan touched his taboo, and the woman he cared about most was also attracted to him. This was unbearable.
Therefore, Chu Kuangli took that step and did not hesitate to rebel and kill his master.
But he didn't expect that after so many years since that man's death, his influence was still there.
Zhou Xuan actually has a son.
Moreover, that little brat gradually became successful, following the path of his father, making great progress, and even inherited the position of King Yuan. His magical powers were astonishing and known to the whole world.
Thinking of this, Chu Kuangtian's eyes filled with strong murderous intent.
To a certain extent, the person Zhou Tianxuanzong should really be left to is Zhou Dao.
In Chu Kuangtian's eyes, that man's son should not have lived in this world.
"I want that boy to die." Ye Miaoxian gritted her silver teeth.
"You must kill him personally. I don't believe that the sword pillar can protect him for the rest of his life."
Chu Kuangliang groaned for a moment and tried his best to comfort him.
"Miaoxian, please be patient and don't be impatient."
"If I take action and the impact is too great, Jianzhu will go crazy, and there are also different voices within Zhoutian Xuanzong."
Chu Kuangtian's doubts are not unreasonable. Legally speaking, Zhou Dao is the true successor of Zhou Tianxuanzong.
Back then, Zhou Tianxuan Sect was divided into two, and Chu Kuangtian even led the [Ming Pulse] to destroy the [Hidden Pulse] and became independent from then on.
A large part of the reason is that Zhou Xuan died and he had no heirs.
Now that Zhou Dao's identity has been exposed, the situation is different.
You must know that there are many members of Zhou Xuan's team within Zhou Tianxuan Sect, who have followed the previous generation of King Yuan through life and death.
At this time, these people may not jump out to support Zhou Dao.
But if Chu Kuangtian really takes action, these old friends may not stand idly by.
At this critical moment, Zhou Tianxuanzong must not be in chaos.
At this point, Chu Kuangtian saw that Ye Miaoxian looked wrong and quickly comforted him: "Miaoxian, don't worry, even if that kid is really Zhou Xuan's son, he won't be able to cause any trouble."
"Chu Shen has obtained the inheritance of King Yuan. He is sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai despite the rising waves. The future is already under control, let alone a mere Zhou Dao?"
Chu Kuangtian sneered.
Ye Miaoxian's expression softened slightly after hearing this. She looked intently. Deep in the imperial palace, in a mysterious void, God Chu sat cross-legged and meditated. The miniature black ancient coffin was suspended in front of her, mysterious and unpredictable.
That is the most important legacy left by Zhou Xuan, which is related to the future.
Now it finally fell into the hands of her son.
"Okay, I'll let that kid live for two more days."
Ye Miaoxian's eyes flashed with cold light, suppressing the murderous intention in his heart.
…
Beijing, Xianke Tower.
"Aunt Qin, this swallow antler cake is so delicious."
Zhou Dao picked up the pastry on the gold and jade plate and stuffed it into his mouth, praising it while eating.
"Eat slowly. Also, your taste is exactly the same as my mother's...and my mother's in the palace."
Qin Baichu felt happy when he saw Zhou Dao eating with gusto, and his eyes were full of smiles.
"The food in the palace is exquisite, and the buns are more delicious than the buns at Lao Wang's bun shop." Zhou Dao couldn't help but praise.
The preparation of this swallow antler cake is indeed quite sophisticated. A small pastry requires at least 30 kinds of ingredients, especially the golden jade antler. It needs to be raised with nine-section jade ginseng, and it takes seven days to collect two coins. It can only save twelve hours.
This is Qin Baichu's favorite snack.
"Lao Wang's bun shop?" Qin Baichu couldn't help but ask.
Nowadays, she is extremely interested in everything about Zhou Dao and wants to know every bit of it.
"I often visited a bun shop in Ping'an Town when I was a child. I often had three meals a day there. It was of high quality and low price, and two adults could be full." Zhou Dao said with a grin.
"It's really hard on you." Qin Baichu looked distressed.
In the capital city, all the children of the princes and nobles have not been well-dressed and well-fed since childhood.
In comparison, Zhou Dao was so poor that Qin Baichu's heart trembled.
Two adults can be full! ?
She couldn't even listen to such words now.
"Aunt Qin, you should eat some too." Zhou Dao pushed the gold and jade plate in front of him.
"You eat, Aunt Qin is not hungry, she still has something to eat if she wants." Qin Baichu said softly.
She pulled Zhou Dao and sat in the Xianke Tower for a whole day. It was not until the third watch of the moon that she reluctantly let Zhou Dao go.
It was getting dark, and lanterns were set up in front of the Xianke Tower.
A sound of footsteps came from downstairs.
Qin Baichu looked out the window in the direction Zhou Daoyuan was going, still unable to take his eyes back.
"Why didn't you tell her?" Li Zangfeng's voice sounded faintly in the box.
Qin Baichu's eyes were as gentle as water.
"My younger brother will never allow Zhou Xuan's son to have royal blood in his body."
Qin Baichu's expression slightly condensed. For her now, Zhou Dao's safety is more important than anything else.
"Maybe it's good to be like this now."
Qin Baichu murmured softly and withdrew his gaze.
"Jianzhu, you have suppressed the Chiling Palace hard this time. I'm afraid His Majesty will have an order from you soon."
Speaking of this, Qin Baichu had a hint of worry in his eyes.
After all, Chiling Palace belonged to the imperial court, and Li Zangfeng was so rampant that he beheaded Lingzhao Mountain in front of the world.
If the court does not express its position, it will definitely damage the dignity of the royal family.
The man in the palace will never sit idly by and ignore it.
"The decree has come." Li Zangfeng whispered.
Since he did it, he has naturally considered the consequences.
"What do you mean, Your Majesty?" Qin Baichu asked hurriedly.
"Let me go to the Western Great Swamp and guard it for ten years." Li Zangfeng said calmly.
Emperor Qin's decree is worth pondering. He didn't mention anything about Chi Ling Palace. He just asked the sword pillar to go to the western swamp and guard it for ten years, without specifying that this was a punishment.
In the eyes of outsiders, Emperor Qin's attitude seemed a bit unclear, and even gave rise to many daydreams.
"What do you mean, Your Majesty?" Qin Baichu frowned slightly.
"The Sacred Heart is unpredictable." Li Zangfeng whispered softly, but there was not much movement.
"If you leave, some people may lose their scruples."
Qin Baichu was naturally most worried about Zhou Dao's safety.
"Don't worry, I have arranged everything."
Suddenly, Li Zangfeng smiled.
"Um?"
"I found him a backer."
As he spoke, Li Zangfeng's smile became stronger and stronger, just like the bright moon in the lake, a ripple slowly melted away.
…
Late at night.
Zhou Dao returned to the Yuyao Division and returned to his [Yuanwang Palace].
The impact of this incident was too great. Even though Lu Xianyou had blocked a lot of trouble for him, he was still very busy these days.
Just the questioning in the palace, the accountability in the hermitage, and the many people who came to visit made Zhou Dao a little tired.
Now, after finally getting the chance, Zhou Dao couldn't wait to take out the loot from this trip to the lost cemetery.
The corpses of thirteen great monsters were neatly placed in the hall, and a sinister aura of monsters permeated every corner.
"I hope Grandmaster will not disappoint me." Zhou Dao murmured softly.
This was his plan, to collect the corpses of the great demon and make a collective sacrifice.
Zhou Dao already has expectations in his heart. If he can get a world seed, that would be the best.
In this way, he can open up the corpse in his Dantian and turn it into a sea of Qi, completely stepping into the Four Steps True Realm [Sea Opening Realm].
"Sacrifice!" Zhou Dao raised his hand, and blood and essence spurted out, sprinkling on the corpses of the thirteen demons.
[Sacrifice the thirteen heads of the great demon and receive the Yuan Wang inheritance as a reward].
A mechanical voice sounded in Zhou Dao's mind. Looking up three feet, the mysterious altar was looming! ! !
